Ok - after all the goading and harrassing from you lot after my Closer magazine picture... here's a few choice snaps from my tv past. And yes,ive included some pretty girls.
none of these are in any order... but here goes
In the blue peter garden doing as live phone in game show with Dick and Dom in about 1998
I took a competition winner for Nickelodeon to meet Jemma and Jodie Kidd in 2000 ...
and to grange hill
and to hollyoaks...
I went to Harlem in New York for cbbc, to meet Kace Two - inventor of wild style grafitti and member of The Wonderful Ones early graf pioneers - he had one arm as he losthis other doing a moving subway train[!!]- this was a very very shady area called the Wall Of Fame - proper 'hood' territory, there was nearly a gunfight right next to wear we were filming.
I did a show called Live and Kicking 1999/2000
here's emma ledden and I
and me in 'man from C&A' mode...
met Geri Halliwell
in 2003 I met the man who did the early designs for the Raleigh Chopper... he's far left stood in front of something that makes him look like he's waring a silly hat, tho he is wearing a silly facial expression...holding one of the the original drawings done by him.. and holding the other drawing is none other than Old Fools rider and racer Marc W!
the chopper inventor also designed the Bond Bug traingle shaped orange mini car thing ...his brother is an armourer for various hollywood films - he has the original suits from alien in his front room! and their other brother is a former Isle Of Man TT champion... amazing famliy, all living in one big house n cornwall with aL their past achievments and interests all over the house!
I did a stuntman course for cbbc - it nearly broke me in two - the scariest thing was this cable drop from a 120ft crane...
going up
coming down
they did a car jump over a moving car... they wouldnt let me do it for insurabnce reasons, but i wanted to!
I went to Sanfrancisco a few times, and we went to the Stargate tv series set... i got a non speaking role in one episode! Here I am with that good looking woman...
my favourite co presenter - a welsh girl called Sarra Easterby, married to Simon Easterby, British Lions rugby player - she's very cool, and I think does the superbikes/speedway sports coverage now, plus all the rugby stuff in wales too. A Sh1t hot presenter.
I also did an awful show called Night Fever - they did a version in Spain on the beach, which had its perks... see if you can spot a cople of hollyoaks girls, also Aussie girl [far right] Annalise Braekensak [fhm favourite] , and gail porter and Tess Daly...I also drank with Suggs til 7am one night.
gail porter
I went to Universal City in LA with Fearne Cotton in about 2002
check out this prop storeroom - we were in one corner of one floor of building that had about 20 floors - literaly millions of props !
recognise this place?!
Whilst in LA I went skating at Santa Monica ... i wasnt very good
And I bumped into an old friend of mine in the hotel, she was managing the Sugababes at the time...
